Perfect for the winter months and festive holidays, it's also great in the summer with frozen cranberries. Gluten-free and can be made AIP. Make this recipe fit any diet just by using your favorite pie dough recipe!

Instructions
Preheat oven to 375℉.
In small bowl, add water. Sprinkle gelatin over the surface, and stir it in with a fork. Allow to bloom for a few minutes. Set aside.
Place all berries and cranberries in large mixing bowl. Add coconut sugar. On top of sugar, place the tapioca. To one side, pour in the agave or maple syrup. Finally, add the gelatin mixture and salt, again to one side. Stir well. Set aside.
Make pie dough. Roll out bottom crust; line pie plate with it. Add berry mixture. Top with second pie dough. Crimp edges.
Bake the pie on a cookie sheet to catch any drips. Bake 50 to 60 minutes, until the filling is bubbly. Allow to cool fully on a cooking rack. Fine to leave out overnight at room temperature. Slice and serve!
